Each time I've "pulled the engine and trans, I've lowered the car as much as possible with the wheels removed and unbolted the mounts with so it all sits on a dolly. Then raise the car and slide the mass out.

Harbor Freight has a motorcycle lift on sale. Has anyone used one of these for this process? If it could be rigged, it seems it would take a lot of work out of the jacking, and allignment issues.

I do the same as Andy. i use large 10 x 10s under the rear wheels and get the car way up in the air. I've pulled about 6 engines this way, and have always felt good about it...
